I can't insert the Rusty Sword into the statue of Lord Mi'ihen to receive the Masamune. Any ideas?

I am playing the International version of the game. I have the Celestial Mirror and both the Saturn Crest and the Saturn Sigil (equivalent to Mars in NA version), so naturally my next step was to collect the weapon itself. Rusty Sword in hand, I proceeded to the Luca end of the Mi'ihen Highroad to insert the sword into the statue of Lord Mi'ihen, which is supposed to make a chest appear that contains Auron's celestial weapon, the Masamune. I approach the statue and press O (replaces X as the action button in this version), but nothing happens. All I get is a brief description of the statue.

Why doesn't it give me the sword? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Maybe there might be something wrong with your disc. I think you should check that out. That might be the reason why it's not working. Another reason may be is that you are trying to put the rusty sword in the wrong statue. It should be the one in Mushroom Rock Road past where you enter when the ship takes you there keep going up and don't turn and then you should see a second opening go there and then you will get to insert the rust sword. Hopefully that was helpful and good luck with your game GreenKnightFTW:):):):):):):):):):):):):)
